19.7.2 Amending the next position (and spacing) after each basin.

If ``p'' is entered at #19.7 to amend the next position (as well as the spacing), the following prompt is presented (as in #19.3):

(start= -80,50) amend next pos, % offset from screen centre

x (default -20.7): y (default 30) (values shown are examples)

Enter the next position's polar co-ordinates, first x, then y. Remember that the screen centre is at 0,0 and the edges of the screen are as follows, left x= -100, right x= +100, top y= +100, bottom y= -100. A position outside the screen limits is legal. The original start position is shown as a reference. After the new position is set the x co-ordinate becomes the new default x co-ordinate of the original start position, its y co-ordinate is not affected.

When this option is complete, the spacing option #17.7.1 is presented.
